That's some sexy hardware! Can't wait to see what you come up with. I still can't believe I originally planned on welding to that OEM flange when I was conceptualizing my manifold. That thing is paper thin. Awesome to see it going to good use!

As far as the O2 sensors go I don't think there is any option other than doing the exact same thing everyone else has done. Tuning still needs to be figured out, all I have right now is the Cobb AP. I'll either have to use someone elses tuning solution or build my own boost-control hardware, which I started working on last year.

FYI We'll be working on two ST setups soon trying two strategies. First will be all-in with the DME and Cobb's AP. If that doesn't work out well we'll try using an electronic boost controller to run the external wgate with the AP running the DME show.

Awesome. I really hope something like that can work out, seems better than trying to stack multiple tuning systems on top of each other.

That could be a fun open-source project to start.

I was experimenting with the MCP2515, MCP2551, and Arduino last year. But now that the ARM-based Arduino Due has built-in CAN support, that looks like a good option for car-related projects.

Completely agree, but given its availability, community support (PI community), and scalability, i think it would make a great piece for the community.

I agree. The raspberry pi seems to focus on multimedia though, not control systems. However it is inexpensive, and there is great community support. I'd like to see a project where someone tries to use a raspberry pi as a stand alone.

Just to verify, the additional turbo lag will not cause the DME to throw any underboost codes since these tables are being changed by the COBB, correct?

Well I finally put my set of flanges to use and built a single-turbo kit. I've never owned a car that was this much of a PITA to work on, I came close to putting my fist through the garage wall a few times.

hey Roy, this is Nic, I've met you a couple times at various places. I was just over at Mike's the other night and he showed me what you've been doing. gotta give credit where credit is due and, you sir, definitely deserve credit. keep up the good work and hopefully i'll see that thing on the streets tearing it up soon enough.

Looks great man, any plans for an air cleaner? Looks TIGHT.. I can second putting a fist through a well. Building stage 3 many tools flew across the shop...

It came out way closer to the headlight housing than originally planned, but at this point I really don't feel like trying to move it back for more room. I want to find some foam material I can sandwich between some mesh, in a large tube, and bolt that over inlet. Otherwise locate a filter a bit farther away from the turbo where I can find more room.
